[ this was supposed to be one of Gaby's days off. in fact, she's not in the safehouse when the message comes in. ]

Turns out that we're missing two new faces around the safehouse.

I'd play a guessing game as to why I wasn't told, but I don't care. These two faces apparently murdered two people that night.

I don't know who they are, but I do know that they're locked up. Any guesses as to what's going to happen to them?

Genuine question. Because I don't know.

Oh, and because some of you think you can do whatever the hell you want around here: don't think the way out for them is a jail break. Don't even fucking try it. And no, Morningstar isn't in the business of breaking people out of jail, because that would be stupid.

[ she's a little angry. no. a lot. but mostly she doesn't know how to handle this one. ]

Look. You know something? Tell me. You won't be "in trouble."

Yeah, well, clearly you don't fucking know me.

[fessus]

I know you want to protect people. That's all I need to know.

[batricide]

Clearly it isn't.

[fessus]

No it's just something I feel like I need to remind you of rn bc you're lashing out for no damn reason.

[batricide]

I stated my opinion. People lashed out at me.
If they're not guilty then someone will figure it out.
If they are then they deserve to rot or be killed before they cost us more.

[fessus]

Idk what's going on and I'm not forcing myself into your shit where I'm obv not welcome, but I'll say what I did to Matches. You're way off base and emotionally compromised and need to back off and think shit through.

There are a lot of people here who panicked when they showed up and could've done something stupid too, or they've killed and regret it. You need to stop.

[batricide]

Don't talk about things you know nothing about. So we let them run wild and hope history doesn't repeat itself because they might feel bad?

[fessus]

I'm not, I'm talking about what I can see and what I know. You're off the rails.

We leave them where they are bc the damage is already done and doing more would just draw attention. If they get out? We get them and get the real story.

[batricide]

I'm saying what the rest of you won't. That doesn't make me crazy.

[fessus]

No you're not crazy. Just saying something stupid, for all the reasons I already said.

Go take care of yourself if you wanna actually take care of everyone else too, bc this isn't how.

[ what Noctis won't see is Damian whirling to hit a wall as hard as he can a few times in lieu of another reply.

It's been a long day. ]

[fessus]

[ What Damian won't see is Noctis thunking his head back against the wall behind him when he leans back, half-lidded eyes pointing a glassy stare at the ceiling.

It really has been a long day. ]
